Get pinned GitHub repositories as JSON

#github #json #pinned #repositories

I saw a lot of people asking about how they can get pinned GitHub repositories as a JSON response. This can be done with GraphQL, but some of them are asking for a rest API solution. Fortunately, I found a solution for them.

Visit this site:

https://gh-pinned-repos-5l2i19um3.vercel.app/
Type your GitHub username
Click the ‘go’ button

There you have your JSON response. Or else, you can just replace your Username in the following URL.

https://gh-pinned-repos-5l2i19um3.vercel.app/?username=Username

This program was originally developed by @egoist.

I guess this endpoint might not be available anymore :p I've used it many months ago, but now it's not working anymore, and the same is happening with the website.
